Bad food.....wine...very small shower...not worth the money! First.....and last time using Viking.....for the price of this river cruise the food should have been the best ever....was in fact barely eatable for the evening meals! Breakfast was good....lunch was fair...but dinner...was very poor. Poor quality and small portions. Their house red wine was not good, For $10,000 for 7 days everything ...
We chose the Romantic Danube from Budapest to Nuremberg because we had never sailed on the Danube and we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. We chose to stay two nights prior in Budapest arranged by Viking at the beautiful and outstanding location Intercontinental Hotel. While my husband took several walking tours, I sat watching all kinds of people strolling the promenade right in front ...
I had long wanted to sail the Danube and selected Viking based on literature we reviewed. As we had never been on a river or ocean cruise, we had no idea what to expect other than the comfort of traveling through various countries which we could tour at each port without the hassle of packing/unpacking as you travel city to city and change hotels.
As such, we found the ship quickly became ...
When you consider the history and think about the picturesque beauty this is the Danube, there was no other choice for this to be our first Viking River Cruise. The ports of call each had distinctive features and cruising along canals and then the river made for an interesting set of sights. Add to this the efficiency in everything that was done by the crew and the fine dining experiences, this ...
After 25 cruises I looked forward to trying a river cruise. We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and exploring ports we would never see if we were on a big ship. The cabin was a bit small for my taste but we managed ok for the week. The food in the dining room was very good. One complaint was the lack of food in the afternoon. I came back from a day of sightseeing and there was nothing to eat. There ...
Viking Cruise lines is a class act. All the crew were professional, polite, willing to help, patient, and attempted to learn the names of the passengers. I will never do a mega ship again. The ship was very clean.
I was a little surprised at the decor, in my opinion, it could use a little face lift, It was a lot more plane than I thought it would be. But again, the ship was spotless and well ...
We chose it because of good reviews, both from online and personal contacts, and because it suited our needs. We didn't need the bell and whistles that many of the higher priced river cruise lines offer. The decor is wonderful, food great, service impeccable - just luxurious enough for us. And what really made it special was the crew actually seemed to like what they're doing and enjoyed the ...
The cruise was everything it was advertised to be. From the room to the food to the crew, everything was excellent. I have a minor food issue and they were more than willing, in fact insistent on making sure that I knew prior to the meals, what I could and could not choose to eat. I never went hungry. The food choices were outstanding. The room was wonderful and was kept very clean. We had to ...
It sounded like a fun time. These were cities I wanted to visit and a river cruise was something I wanted to do. Although the cabin was small, we were so busy that we hardly spent any time in there. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it. We were never hungry. There were snacks available between meals. Every evening, there was some activity or entertainment if you were looking for ...
This was our first river cruise and we went with friends. We spent 3 days in Prague beforehand to adjust from jet lag before joining the Atla in Nuremberg and thoroughly enjoyed it. On board the entire crew treated us like royalty and did everything possible to make the trip memorable. The Maitre d' helped with personalized menu adjustments for food allergies every morning making the meals more ...
